Re: ROE,ROW in upstate N.Y.

Hello!I am descended from Rowe's in Rensselaer & Albany Counties in New York. My Great Grandmother was Gertrude Rowe. She was born in 1889 in Eagle Mills, Rensselaer Co. Her parents were Henry Rowe and Jennie Ferguson who were married 14 Jun 1878 in Poestenkill, Rensselaer Co. I believe the birth date for Jennie Ferguson is 1 Oct 1857. I have no dates for Henry Rowe - his parents were Henry Rowe & Elizabeth Derrick. I also have no dates for them. This was all given to me by my Great Grandmother, Gertrude before she died and her handwriting is very hard to read. There is always the possibility that we misread something, such as the names of their wives, exact spellings, etc. I was wondering if you may have any info on any of these people. My brother and I have been researching our families genealogy and have not been able to come up with anything at all. I also have some of the children for both of these couples, but no dates. The only areas that I know of that they lived were Rensselaer Co. and Albany Co., NY.Can you help me?Thanks!Daphne
